FAKE NEWS IS VIOLENCE!

“The most violent element in the society is ignorance”

Emma Goldman

We encourage people to use their imagination to make sense out of this sentence.

Please be reminded that past and current administrations use various means to deceive people.

They spread fake news and lies to cover up what is real.

GNP, GDP, infrastructure, and promises of politicians with regard to development are also smoke screen to the hide real situations. But these are less effective compare to killings.

Duterte administration use fake news massively to encourage violence. Illegal drugs are one among serious problems that should be addressed; but it is intentionally blown out of proportion. The exaggerated presentation of drug problem justifies killings. Since Duterte’s assumption to office, blood and dead bodies of allegedly drug users and pushers became everyday news to the point that people became use to it. There are thousands of victims died without due process; the number of people weeping and crying for justice increase daily. This BLOOD BATH is being carried out by FAKE NEWS.

POVERTY, HUNGER, SOCIAL INJUSTICE, INEQUALITY AND DESTRUCTION OF ECOLOGY is real and recurring. People talk less on these issues. People talk more on blood. People talk more on physical violence rather than violence caused by structures such as control to social patrimony by few through centralization of political power.

There’s more. Duterte administration is very vocal to the idea of Martial Law. He keeps on talking about declaring it on the BASIS OF FAKE NEWS!

Autonomous activists and anarchists gathered at Rizal Park yesterday (Sept. 21) to encourage people to become critical. Through FOOD SHARING (Food Not Bombs of FNB), sharing of clothes to the homeless, musical jamming discussions they able to send their message to the people who are generally entertained by FAKE NEWS coming from the government, leftists and opposition who are interested to power.
